How old are your kitchen cabinets? Could your bathroom use a little "pick me up"? Are your carpets filthy with the everyday wear and tear that has been building up for years? You may want to look into getting a home equity line of credit. Banks are offering great rates right now on lines of credit so home owners can put that money to use and make necessary home improvements.
Recently, I looked into these lines of credit personally, just to see what there was out there. I found some great rates that would give me a $40,000 line of credit for as little as $273 a month. I am not saying that this rate still exists, or promising that you will find a similar rate out there, but it is worth the look. How long have you looked at your counter top and said to yourself, "This has to go"? How many Saturdays have you spent re-caulking the bathtub seams and re-grouting the bathroom tile? Why don't you put your time and effort into something that will build your home's value?
Even if you are planning on selling your home soon, it is still a wise investment to put some resources into rooms like the kitchen, the bathrooms or the master bedroom. Why? This is where home owners spend the majority of their time, and these are the three most important places to a new home buyer. Talk to your local bank to find out more information about a home equity line of credit. It's time that you loved your home! If you are looking to sell or curious what type of impact certain repairs and renovations will have on your property value give a real estate professional a call today and I am sure that they would be happy to conduct a free property evaluation!
